Macalister Land and Water Management Plan Renewal

The Macalister Land and Water Management Plan (MLWMP) was developed for the Macalister Irrigation District (MID) and surrounding catchment areas, and was released in 2008. It was originally created to renew the Macalister Irrigation District Nutrient Reduction Plan. It had a focus on managing nutrients and water in the MID to protect the Gippsland Lakes from algal blooms. It also incorporated the management of other natural resources in the MID and surrounding dryland areas, including biodiversity, wetlands, floodplains, waterways and groundwater.
